Abstract
- The case is presented of an intraspinal meningioma in a 14-yr-old female. After surgical exploration pulmonary metastases became apparent. At necropsy the tumour had increased proportions of the cathodal isoenzymes LDH-4 and 5. This pattern has previously been observed in malignant meningiomas and may be used at the time of biopsy to assess malignancy.
